The Afghan Whigs has made their cover of Frank Ocean’s “Lovecrimes” available as a free download at www.theafghanwhigs.com.
The song was originally released on Ocean’s debut mixtape, Nostalgia, Ultra, and the second newest recording from the band since releasing “See And Don’t See” this past May.
The band is also adding six new shows in North America to their already busy upcoming touring schedule. The new shows include Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Boston and Philadelphia. Many of their upcoming appearances are now sold out, including Lollapolluza and Austin City Limits Music Festival.
